39. Combination Sum

题目描述：

Given a set of candidate numbers (C) (without duplicates) and a target number (T), find all unique combinations in C where the candidate numbers sums to T.

The same repeated number may be chosen from C unlimited number of times.

Note:

• All numbers (including target) will be positive integers.
• The solution set must not contain duplicate combinations.

题目要求给出一个正整数数组，与一个目标整数，求出所有和为目标数的所有组合。我们可以用深度优先的方法搜索。将结果保存在一个向量中。如果结果不符合，则回到上一节点。如果结果符合，则将结果存进另一向量中。代码如下：

class Solution {
public:
    vector<vector<int>> combinationSum(vector<int>& candidates, int target) {
        vector<vector<int>> results;
        sort(candidates.begin(), candidates.end());
        helper(results,vector<int>{},candidates,target,0);
        return results;
    }
    void helper(vector<vector<int>> &results, vector<int> result, vector<int>& c, int target, int index){
        if(target == 0){
            results.push_back(result);
            return;
        }
        for(int i = index; i < c.size() && target >= c[i]; ++i){
            result.push_back(c[i]);
            helper(results, result, c, target - c[i], i);
            result.pop_back();
        }//end of for
    }//end of helper
};
